Fig. 5.— — Sliding window analysis of dosage compensation. Log2 of normalized FPKM values of Xenos males and females mapped along chromosome 1 and chromosome 4 of T. castaneum. Male is shown in blue and (A) female larva and (B) neotenic adult female are shown in red. Chromosome 1 appears to be almost completely dosage compensated, with some regions showing male-biased and others showing female-biased expression. Chromosome 4, on the other hand, has globally lower FPKM values for males than females, suggesting that complete dosage compensation has not yet evolved on the this chromosome.
